It’s back-to-school season and your to-do list has doubled in this week alone, but there’s still this nagging feeling that you’ve forgotten something. Fear not—here is a list of back-to-school essentials you can check off quickly with the help of Brookshire Brothers Anywhere, your local community grocer's online shopping service.

TopCare Health Products
TopCare provides quality solutions for your child’s health and wellness needs. Stock up on essentials like first aid, hand sanitizer, tissues, allergy medicines, cold/flu medications and more.
Also, remember to complete your child’s school and sports physicals to ensure they’re ready for the year ahead!
Pharmacy
Brookshire Brothers Pharmacy accepts prescription transfers, making it easier to pick up all your grocery and health needs in one place. Our pharmacies also provide immunizations against Flu, Tetanus, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, HPV, MMR, Meningitis, and more (not all vaccines are available at all locations).
School-Specific Supplies
Each school puts out its own supply list, which you can find on your school’s website, their social media, through email, etc. There are some classroom classics, however, that never go out of style.
Notebooks and Notecards
Research has shown that writing by hand increases memory retention and understanding. Flashcards also engage active recall and are a versatile study tool.
Planner
In addition to benefits of writing things down, keeping track of your busy schedule and assignments is key to a successful school year. A planner can keep your child prepared and on-task.
Flash Drive
In our ever-technological world, a flash drive can be a useful, portable tool.
Water Bottle
It is important for children to stay hydrated throughout the school day. Dehydration is a factor in decreased short- and long-term memory, arithmetic efficiency, visuospatial function, and attention. A reusable water bottle could be a solution to such issues as well as encourage your child to drink more water.
